Chapter 108
“You don‘t have to transfer the money for the car.” Zachary changed the subject back to the recent car purchase.
As Serenity did not have Zachary‘s bank account details, she had been sending fifty thousand dollars to his mobile device every day.
However, Zachary had not once accepted the transaction.
The first transaction of fifty thousand dollars had made its way back to Serenity‘s bank account.
“I got you a car, so it‘ll reflect nicely on me. Presentation is important after all. I might be busy with work, but there are occasions I‘d need to bring you to business dinners too. It will be humiliating for me if people find out that my wife rides a malfunctioning e–bike.”
Zachary saw the car as keeping up appearances.
“I thought it was an apology gift,” Serenity retorted.
Zachary replied after a pause, “It works both ways.”
“Well, don‘t give me any more living allowances for the year since you already got me a car.”
Zachary lifted his chin and stared at her without saying yes or no.
Serenity took his silence as his affirmation on the matter. It was a weight off her shoulder as she believed she owed him nothing now.
“Pay no mind to your relatives for now. They might stick to their guns now, but it won‘t last long. They‘ll apologize to you. You and your sister can bring your grandparents to court over your parents‘ house. You should make them pay half if not all.
“No need to go soft on people who prey on you and walk all over you.”
